    He's not wrong.

    This Rockets team is good enough that anything less than the WCF would have been a huge disappointment. They are good enough that they didn't play their best basketball and still rolled through the first two rounds of the playoffs, 8-2. They are good enough that- even though the Warriors will be the favorites in the series- not advancing would still be a disappointment.

    I don't think SAS will ever give any Houston Rocket credit even if they win an NBA Championship. It would make nearly all the analysts and commentators look like a bunch of fools. For the record, honestly I don't think we will win against GS, but I do expect us to go down fighting.

    If we win a series against a healthy warrior team he’d look incredibly foolish not to give us credit.

    Don't care for what he said, I need to hear what the great Max said

    I didn't hear anything he said that I disagree with. Later on his radio show, he opened by praising CP3 effusively. All I think he's saying is that CP3 is not satisfied with just getting to the conference finals.

    I thought Chris Paul was the biggest loser because GSW, SPURS and OKC were all better than Houston

    Will Stephen A be able to redeem himself from all those flip flops?
